The End of Ouya


Attention, all Ouya owners. If you are reading this comic, please take note that online support for the Ouya, including its digital game store, will end on its 6th anniversary. For your knowledge, Ouya hardware production ended in 2015.

It's sad that the Ouya ended up a commercial failure despite a successful Kickstarter campaign. Heralded as the "PlayStation Killer", the Ouya was also said to be able to emulate NES and SNES games, and also had the Nvidia Tegra chipset, which is the chipset currently utilised by the Nintendo Switch. Unfortunately, the Ouya turned out to be a flop, resulting in the company behind it facing a financial crisis.

In other words, the 6th anniversary of the Ouya will not be a happy anniversary. Instead, it will be the day a commercial failure meets its end.
